    Keywords: Python (Computer program language) ; Cloud computing
    Abstract: Modern systems contain multi-core CPUs and GPUs that have the potential for parallel computing. But many scientific Python tools were not designed to leverage this parallelism. With this short but thorough resource, data scientists and Python programmers will learn how the Dask open source library for parallel computing provides APIs that make it easy to parallelize PyData libraries including NumPy, pandas, and scikit-learn. Authors Holden Karau and Mika Kimmins show you how to use Dask computations in local systems and then scale to the cloud for heavier workloads. This practical book explains why Dask is popular among industry experts and academics and is used by organizations that include Walmart, Capital One, Harvard Medical School, and NASA. With this book, you'll learn: What Dask is, where you can use it, and how it compares with other tools How to use Dask for batch data parallel processing Key distributed system concepts for working with Dask Methods for using Dask with higher-level APIs and building blocks How to work with integrated libraries such as scikit-learn, pandas, and PyTorch How to use Dask with GPUs.

    Abstract: Every decade since the 1960s, researchers at companies like IBM, Amazon, and many others have introduced major new frameworks and techniques to handle rising data management problems. This concise ebook explains how these new systems helped data science evolve quickly-from hierarchical and relational databases to big data and cloud computing to streaming and graph data. Computer scientist Paco Nathan shows members of your data science team how major companies created each of these data management systems not just to deal with new data types but also to take full advantage of the opportunities the data presented. Their efforts over the years have propelled an entire industry. This report covers the historical progression of data management topics including: Hierarchical databases -1960s mainframe batch systems are still used in finance, healthcare, manufacturing, energy, and other industries. Relational databases -these enabled faster transactions, mathematical optimization, and budgeting guarantees for many businesses. Big data -this includes relatively cheap horizontal scale-out systems for collecting huge amounts of customer data. Cloud computing -large companies began managing reliable, scalable, cost-effective data centers; Amazon turned the concept into a business. Cluster schedulers -managing horizontal clusters was difficult before schedulers such as Apache Mesos appeared. Streaming data -data continuously generated by different sources requires responses in "real time"-generally milliseconds.

    Abstract: Despite deploying the latest security technologies, organizations still struggle to defend cloud-based web applications against sophisticated cyberattacks. Many companies have turned to the popular defense-in-depth (DiD) technique, but this multilayered approach has its shortcomings. So where is the industry headed next? This insightful ebook demonstrates a new approach to DiD that enables current security tools to operate in concert rather than independently. Stephen Gates, edge security evangelist and SME at Oracle Dyn, shows you how companies can establish integrated lines of defense similar to the way in which modern militaries operate on the battlefield. By the end of this book, CSOs, CISOs, security managers, and other professionals will understand how to implement the recommendations in this book today using the security technologies they already have in place. With this ebook, you'll examine: Why today's security technologies alone aren't enough to protect web applications How the existing approach to DiD for cybersecurity falls short of its goals An example of how the modern military uses integrated lines of defense that work in concert Eight lines of defense-including edge routers, DDoS defenses, and WAFs-that are best for protecting cloud-based web applications Ways to use automation and supervised machine learning to integrate your security approaches

    Abstract: Today's successful businesses are increasingly digital and technologically astute, but how do they attract and manage employees in a world where two billion people work part-time? How do they develop a workforce when automation is advancing? And how do they serve customers and attract and retain employees when competition for both is high and trust is at an all-time low? In this O'Reilly Radar report, Josh Bersin, Tim O'Reilly, Roger Magoulas, and Mike Loukides address what business leaders, tech leaders, and decision makers can expect, how they can prepare, and what they should learn to shape the future of the business. These lessons affect much more than the bottom line. This report covers big-picture trends we expect to impact the future success of all firms, including: Trust in business is changing: customers seek firms whose values reflect their own. Employees want satisfaction and meaning, not just money and security. The shift to AI and machine learning is changing almost every job. Companies are becoming networked marketplaces that build on core competencies while outsourcing the rest. Many firms offer compensation beyond pay, including alternate work relationships, flexible workplaces, and training opportunities. Embracing diversity requires solving compensation problems, creating a safe workplace, and valuing an employee's opinions.

In this ebook, Bill Laberis explores cloud native by defining various interrelated elements of this approach. By learning terms such as DevOps, microservices, and continuous delivery, you'll understand why cloud native is much more about how applications are built and deployed than where. This ebook includes case studies of how the Financial Times, Volkswagen, ASOS, and DISH adopted cloud native. You'll examine cloud native practices and components such as: DevOps: Practices for removing barriers between development and operations Continuous delivery, continuous upgrades, and automated scalability: Practices vital to DevOps success Containers, including Docker: A method for bundling software and its dependencies into one package Kubernetes: A tool for deploying, scaling, and managing containerized applications Orchestration: Automated configuration, coordination, and management of cloud systems, resources, and software Microservices: Architecture for building applications as a collection of services or protocols

    Abstract: The way developers design, build, and run software has changed significantly with the evolution of microservices and containers. These modern architectures use new primitives that require a different set of practices than most developers, tech leads, and architects are accustomed to. With this focused guide, Bilgin Ibryam and Roland Huß from Red Hat provide common reusable elements, patterns, principles, and practices for designing and implementing cloud-native applications on Kubernetes. Each pattern includes a description of the problem and a proposed solution with Kubernetes specifics. Many patterns are also backed by concrete code examples. This book is ideal for developers already familiar with basic Kubernetes concepts who want to learn common cloud-native patterns. You'll learn about the following pattern categories: Foundational patterns cover the core principles and practices for building container-based cloud-native applications. Behavioral patterns explore finer-grained concepts for managing various types of container and platform interactions. Structural patterns help you organize containers within a pod, the atom of the Kubernetes platform. Configuration patterns provide insight into how application configurations can be handled in Kubernetes. Advanced patterns cover more advanced topics such as extending the platform with operators.

    Abstract: As technology becomes deeply integrated into every aspect of our lives, we've begun to expect more emotionally intelligent interactions. But smartphones don't know if we're having a bad day, and cars couldn't care less about compassion. Technology is developing more IQ, but it still lacks EQ. In this book, Pamela Pavliscak-design researcher and advisor to Fortune 500 companies-explores new research about emotion, new technology that engages emotion, and new emotional design practices. Drawing on her own research and the latest thinking in psychology, neuroscience, and behavioral economics, Pamela shows you how design can help promote emotional well-being. You'll learn: How design has transformed emotion and how tech is transforming it again New principles for merging emotional intelligence and design thinking How to use a relationship model for framing product interactions and personality Methods for blending well-being interventions with design patterns How emotional resonance can guide designers toward ethical futures Implications of emotionally intelligent technology as it scales from micro- to mega-emotional spheres

    Abstract: Positions in product management are in high demand today for job seekers and companies alike, and yet there is much confusion in the market about what, exactly, this role is and does. Many conflate product management with project management, a much more familiar role. This ebook explains the distinction between product and project management for executives and hiring managers, including how these two roles often overlap and complement one another. Bruce McCarthy, CEO of UpUp Labs and President of the Boston Product Management Association, explains that while project managers are responsible for marshalling resources to deliver products on time and on budget, product managers are responsible for the entire lifecycle, from initial research to final product-including market analysis after the product is released. This ebook examines the responsibilities, skills, and expertise that define and differentiate product management and project management, and provides guidelines to help you determine which position best fits your needs.

    Abstract: Without established design patterns to guide them, developers have had to build distributed systems from scratch, and most of these systems are very unique indeed. Today, the increasing use of containers has paved the way for core distributed system patterns and reusable containerized components. This practical guide presents a collection of repeatable, generic patterns to help make the development of reliable distributed systems far more approachable and efficient. Author Brendan Burns-Director of Engineering at Microsoft Azure-demonstrates how you can adapt existing software design patterns for designing and building reliable distributed applications. Systems engineers and application developers will learn how these long-established patterns provide a common language and framework for dramatically increasing the quality of your system. Understand how patterns and reusable components enable the rapid development of reliable distributed systems Use the side-car, adapter, and ambassador patterns to split your application into a group of containers on a single machine Explore loosely coupled multi-node distributed patterns for replication, scaling, and communication between the components Learn distributed system patterns for large-scale batch data processing covering work-queues, event-based processing, and coordinated workflows

    Abstract: Docker's catchphrase for its containers is compelling: "Build, Ship and Run Any App, Anywhere." Go already has some of those attributes built in, including cross-compilation and the production of single executable files without dependencies. Are there any reasons, then, for Go programmers to use containers to deploy code? In this lesson, veteran developer Liz Rice outlines several advantages that containers can provide for Go programmers-such as how they help you restrict the resources that your code can access, and how you can use them to run and test your software locally with other components. You'll then look at some cases where containers wouldn't add any benefit at all. As always, it's important to use the right tool for the job, and containers can offer advantages for Go programmers in the right circumstances. This lesson provides some helpful guidelines.

    Abstract: The data lake was once heralded as the answer to the flood of big data that arrived in a variety of structured and unstructured formats. But, due to the ease of integration and the lack of governance, data lakes in many companies have devolved into unusable data swamps. This short ebook shows you how to solve this problem using an Operational Data Hub (ODH) to collect, store, index, cleanse, harmonize, and master data of all shapes and formats. Gerhard Ungerer-CTO and co-founder of Random Bit LLC-explains how the ODH supports transactional integrity so that the hub can serve as integration point for enterprise applications. You'll also learn how the ODH helps you leverage the investment in your data lake (or swamp), so that the data trapped there can finally be ingested, processed, and provisioned. With this ebook, you'll learn how an ODH: Allows you to focus on categorizing data for easy and fast retrieval Provides flexible storage models, indexing support, query capabilities, security, and a governance framework Delivers flexible storage models; support for indexing, scripting, and automation; query capabilities; transactional integrity; and security Includes a governance model to help you access, ingest, harmonize, materialize, provision, and consume data

    Abstract: In the race to compete in today's fast-moving markets, large enterprises are busy adopting new technologies for creating new products, processes, and business models. But one obstacle on the road to digital transformation is placing too much emphasis on technology, and not enough on the types of processes technology enables. What if different lines of business could build their own services and applications-and decision-making was distributed rather than centralized? This report explores the concept of a digital business platform as a way of empowering individual business sectors to act on data in real time. Much innovation in a digital enterprise will increasingly happen at the edge, whether it involves business users (from marketers to data scientists) or IoT devices. To facilitate the process, your core IT team can provide these sectors with the digital tools they need to innovate quickly. This report explores: Key cultural and organizational changes for developing business capabilities through cross-functional product teams A platform for integrating applications, data sources, business partners, clients, mobile apps, social networks, and IoT devices Creating internal API programs for building innovative edge services in low- code or no-code environments Tools including Integration Platform as a Service, Application Platform as a Service, and Integration Software as a Service The challenge of integrating microservices and serverless architectures An integration solution for a digital business platform that serves every audience in your organization

    Abstract: In-memory data grids (IMDG) such as Pivotal GemFire, which is powered by Apache Geode, are key to making today's modern high-speed, data-intensive applications work. By keeping data in the RAM of a horizontally scalable cluster of servers, IMDG solutions enable apps to achieve consistently low latency for data access at any scale. Many in the application development community, however, aren't aware of IMDG's benefits, use cases, or underlying technology. This report brings you up to speed by providing GemFire basics, including use cases and easily understood examples. You'll determine whether GemFire can benefit your application, and learn how to install a simple test environment and build a small proof of concept. Explore GemFire use cases for Java applications-including microservices, high-speed data ingest, and transaction and event processing Get an architectural overview of GemFire, and learn installation requirements for both hardware/VM and cloud Dive into GemFire's capabilities with continuous queries, server-side functions, and Apache Lucene integration Learn how GemFire works with the persistence model, off-heap memory, and WAN replication
